back.

BISHOP. But what do you fear? You just said you did not fear a
revolution.

PRESCOTT. I don't. I fear the continuance of what we already have.
Stagnation and semi-socialism.

BISHOP. When could you give my boy a job?

PRESCOTT. When a sound administration goes into power at
Washington.

BISHOP. I don't dare to make him wait.

PRESCOTT. Then you must continue to take care of him.

BISHOP. It is not the cost of his living. He needs work. I can't
provide that. You could, if you would.

PRESCOTT. Believe me, I would if I could.

BISHOP. You understand that the salary ...

PRESCOTT. James, I know that your son is a capable young man and I
would like to have him here with me. But I can't make a job for a
man when I have nothing for him to do.

BISHOP. You, must, Stanley. I can afford to support him, but he
refuses to accept support from me any longer.
